Are these 9005 still worth buying? I keep looking at the AF9 but these have dropped to a good price now.
They’re the best affordable FALD sets, so yes. If you only need 55” though I’d say the price difference to OLED is worth it, but at 65” they’re quite sensibly priced.
If there’s even a vague chance you can stretch to an OLED though, maybe on Black Friday - just do that. I have 65XE from last year and its fantastic, but OLED absolutely destroys it.
